Strategic aim and objectives

The challenges faced by higher education (HE) are increasing in complexity as the pace of change in society increases. Our aim is to work in partnership with the sector to ensure that the HE system is run in the most effective and efficient way to secure its own long-term sustainability and to maintain its world class reputation for excellence.

Full details of our aims and objectives are set out in the HEFCE strategic plan under ‘Sustaining a high quality HE sector’.
